What reading level is Mechanism And Personality An Outline of Philosophy in the Light of the Latest S book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The electrical transmission is analogous to the action of the sensory nerve ; the click of the instrument may be compared to the reaction of the nerve-cell, but the meaning is only in the mind of the operator. Motion in any form is but a fact of mechanism, and its physical results are but dead symbols ; in themselves wholly meaningless until the psychical factor appears upon the scene. Between this factor and the symbols is a world-wide chasm over which no conceivable bridge has ever been built... by the wit of man ; and yet this chasm is crossed and recrossed in fact, every moment of our lives.
We see, then, that it is not any individual nerve-action, nor any succession of them that is sensation, but it is their inter- pretation through the arranging and co-ordinating power of the self. Sensation proper is thus not physical, though it has a physical basis, but belongs to the psychical side of personality. Now, in order that there shall be arrangement, there must be attention or conation ; so that the action of the inchoate will must be present in interpreting the most elementary signs which come to the self from the external world.
